Review from L M (Mother of Child) published on 18 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child attends the baby room, and I have 6 children, and this child being my last, I have never left any of them, but the baby unit manager and the girls have supported us both. My child hasn’t found it easy to leave me and I found it hard to start with, but the baby unit manager is like a second mum and they have been absolutely amazing for us and we share tips together, it’s home from home for us, and I would not hesitate in recommending these guys.

I have two children at Anglia Sunshine Nurseries. Both have thrived there, showing significant leaps in development as a result of the care, attention, and fun learning activities that are a core part of the nursery. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Anglia Sunshine Nurseries to others.

Overall Experience

My little boy is starting his new room this week and the nursery is so supportive! I’m always informed and even got shown around the next room even though he has been at the nursery for 2 years, which makes it more personal and informative for me as a mum. The whole team is the best!

Review from Georgina P (Mother of Child) published on 18 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son only goes one day a week, but he enjoys every minute of that day! He eats every meal they give him! And joins in with all the activities they offer him! He loves going outside into the garden area which is covered so it's available for all weathers! And I absolutely love receiving the messages online every day he's there that keep me up to date with his learning and activities. All of the staff are friendly and very helpful. And always have been. My 15-year-old boy spent 4 years there from 2007, I was so impressed with the nursery that I enrolled my younger children with them with no hesitation. This nursery has been constantly brilliant for as long as I've had the pleasure of knowing it!

Review from Kerry D (Mother of Child) published on 13 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The most amazing nursery! Having had my little boy during the first Covid lockdown we did have attachment issues as he just wasn't used to seeing other people. Our key workers have just been incredible! So kind, caring and patient for both of us. Almost a year at nursery now and my little boy shows none of these attachment issues anymore, he talks daily of his key worker and cannot wait to go and play with the other staff and children. Feeling like your child is being loved, looked after and cared for as you would yourself is the most reassuring and best feeling for a working mum! Thank you all so much!

Review from Marie T (Mother of Child) published on 8 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

There are not really the words to explain how exemplary this nursery is, on every level. My daughter absolutely loves her time here she gets excited to go in and runs in full of confidence, the staff are simply amazing and she has a brilliant relationship with them all and all the other children. They are always doing different activities and the setting is very well equipped and managed. Communication from the nursery is excellent, and nothing is ever too much for them. The food she gets at nursery makes me jealous, she has such variety and healthy options making her love all food types. All in all the best thing I did for my daughter was send her to this nursery ahead of her school journey it’s set a fantastic foundation for her schooling life. Thank you for everything Anglia Sunshine!

Reply from Felicity Rose, Nursery Manager at Sunshine Nursery School

What a lovely review, thank you so much! She has been an absolute pleasure to have, such a kind, loving, caring little girl who always makes us laugh! We hope you will visit us still, we will miss you!

Overall Experience

Both my children go to Anglia Sunshine and my eldest is about to head to mainstream school. I can’t thank them enough for everything they have done for him in getting him prepared. He has SEN needs and the team have stopped at nothing in ensuring his needs are met and he is school ready. Exceptional SENCO and incredible team all round.

Reply from Felicity Rose, Nursery Manager at Sunshine Nursery School

He has been a pleasure to have! He is such a loving, funny little boy who is more than ready for his next adventure. We can't wait to hear all about it!

Review from Katie H (Mother of Child) published on 8 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy has been at Anglia Sunshine since he was 10 months old. We are now preparing for school and I am so sad to be leaving. Right from the start the support and care for my child has been exceptional. Staff are friendly and show so much care and attention. Anglia Sunshine are always so accommodating for my job and the fact it doesn’t follow standard times or shifts. Nothing is ever a problem and the support I have received has been wonderful. Each room and staff member giving it their all. Being at Anglia Sunshine has helped my boy blossom and grow as a person and he has come on leaps and bounds since attending. We will miss you all so much.

Reply from Felicity Rose, Nursery Manager at Sunshine Nursery School

It has been a pleasure to have your son here with us at Anglia Sunshine. He has grown into such a kind, caring little boy who is more than ready for his next adventure to school. We hope you still come to visit us!

Review from Laura C (Mother of Child) published on 3 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy was a clingy child having been born 2 months before the national lockdown and not knowing anyone. I contacted Anglia Sunshine to see if they had space, they did and within a few days, we were having settling sessions. They accommodated his needs by building his settle sessions up from 15 mins to an afternoon over the course of a couple of weeks to get him used to it, this seems to have done the trick as he now loves going. My little boy is dairy-free through intolerances and they’re brilliant with this too, in fact, some of the meals he gets at nursery make us very jealous! The best move we did was putting him in Anglia Sunshine as he’s developed a lot more independence and we know he likes it.

Reply from Felicity Rose, Nursery Manager at Sunshine Nursery School

We can't wait to watch him grow and develop further.

Review from Kate G (Mother of Child) published on 19 July 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I love Anglia Sunshine because they feel like an extended family. My children have both been to Sunshine, the youngest from 1 year old to starting school. All of the ladies have been so caring and supportive and have given good advice when I've asked about all the stages of baby and toddlerhood. Nothing is too much for them, they really care and I trust them completely. The food is so good, I am often envious of what they've had! I will miss them all greatly when my little one leaves this week. Thank you Anglia Sunshine for giving my boys a great start outside of family life.

My son has been attending since January 2020. He has come on so far since starting. His confidence has grown so much since attending here. The staff are so friendly, caring and are truly amazing and really do go above and beyond for the children.

We are sad for him to be leaving, but will definitely use this nursery again in the future.

Overall Experience

My son has been attending Anglia Sunshine for a couple of months now and he absolutely adores arriving in the morning, normally itching to get through the door. He loves all the staff and comes out with a smile on his face every day. All the staff are very professional, friendly and have the best interests of your child at the forefront of everything they do. The nursery staff always respond quickly to any questions I have/had and I feel so grateful that we found you! Thank you so much.

Overall Experience

My fourteen month old has been attending the nursery for the last month and she has settled in so well and will very happily go to her key worker with a smile. I haven't had any tears and that's all down to the staff making her feel so comfortable. To her it's fun, fun, fun and she she loves it! Couldn't recommend them enough!

Review from Laura B (Mother of Child) published on 12 January 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Being a first-time mum I was worried about leaving my little girl at nursery but as soon as I walked around Anglia Sunshine I knew that it was perfect for her. I never worry about leaving my little girl there and know that she is so well looked after. She loves going to the nursery which is a huge relief for me. The ladies are so friendly and you can tell that they really care about the children they look after. She has a fantastic bond with her key person and loves being in her company. The EYlog is brilliant and allows parents to gain an insight into their child’s day which I absolutely love. Thank you for everything you do!

All the staff have been great with our little girl. She has been attending the nursery since she was 6 months old and has really flourished in the environment of the nursery. The activities and food are great, and always good communication with the staff.

I have never walked into a nursery and felt so at ease.

Extremely friendly and always about to have a laugh! My daughter has had a particularly rough year with illness and the nursery has been extremely supportive not only to her but to myself. If you are after that ‘home from home’ experience, This is the nursery to go for!
